PRP in Aesthetic Medicine – Natural. Regenerative. Evidence-Based
PRP in aesthetic medicine
True regeneration begins beneath the skin—not with magic remedies, but with your body's own healing power.
PRP – Platelet Rich Plasma – is one of the most exciting and at the same time most misunderstood treatment methods of modern aesthetic medicine. In my practice in Herzogenaurach, we use PRP specifically where your skin or hair needs a natural regeneration boost: for hair loss, acne scars, or diminished skin quality.
We don't follow trends—instead, we follow scientific standards.
What exactly is PRP?
PRP is a highly concentrated blood plasma obtained from your own blood. It contains:
- Platelets (thrombocytes)
- Growth factors (e.g., PDGF, VEGF, TGF-β)
- Regenerative proteins
These natural substances stimulate targeted cell regeneration, collagen formation, and microcirculation—without foreign substances, without risk of allergic reactions.
PRP works. When done correctly.
Not every PRP treatment is the same. The key factors for effectiveness are:
The quality of preparation
In our practice, we work exclusively with CE-certified PRP systems (e.g., RegenLab, Arthrex) that ensure clean separation of plasma and erythrocytes. Studies show that precise leukocyte and fibrin control greatly influences treatment success [PubMed ID: 29162661].
The injection technique
Whether manually using ultra-fine needles or with a modern injection gun—the application method determines how evenly the PRP is distributed. In my practice, I combine both methods depending on the area and skin condition to ensure maximum precision with minimal trauma.
The correct indication & frequency
PRP is not a miracle cure—but part of a targeted therapy plan. Whether for hereditary hair loss (androgenetic alopecia), for fine lines or acne scars: The evidence shows clear limitations—but also clear successes when used correctly [PubMed ID: 33639021].
What PRP is not
PRP is not a magical anti-aging injection. And it is not a playground for miracle cures using globules, homeopathics, or non-certified tubes. Such “additions” might sound promising—but their effectiveness is not scientifically proven.
What you should look out for
- Do practices use CE-certified PRP tubes with separation gel?
- Is there standardized, sterile preparation?
- Are additives avoided that could inhibit the effectiveness of platelets (e.g., local anesthetics or unsuitable creams)?
These questions help determine your results—and your safety.
